Lite-On expects this quarter’s delivery volume for half-height (H/H) combo drives to decrease 10% from last quarter and that of H/H DVD burners to increase by 15%. In addition, monthly shipments of slim-type combo drives and DVD burners will rise to 200,000-300,000 units this quarter. As a result, the total shipment volume for this quarter is estimated to grow by up to 10% from last quarter but corresponding revenues and gross margin will not grow substantially due to expected price drops, the company pointed out.
